Crust: 1 ¾ cups flour ½ cup brown sugar ½ cup cold butter, cut into small cubes 1 egg ¼ cup cold water

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Mix flour and sugar. Cut in butter until there is no dry flour. Stir in the egg. Add half of the water, stir it in completely, then stir in the rest of the water. Chill the dough while making the filling.

Filling: ½ cup butter ½ cup honey 2 Tbsp water ¼ cup sugar 2 cups sliced almonds

Stir all ingredients except almonds over medium heat, until butter is mostly melted and sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and add almonds.

Divide the dough in half and press each half into a pie or tart tin (9”-10”), pressing it partially up the sides. Pour half of the glaze into each crust.

Bake for 25 minutes.

2 cups raspberries (fresh or frozen) 2 cups water 1 Tbsp floral tea* (dried rose petals, hibiscus, chamomile, etc) 2 cups sugar 2 liters carbonated water

Spices: For regular healing potion: ½ tsp ground ginger For greater healing potion: ¼ tsp ground clove For superior healing potion: ¼ tsp smoked paprika For supreme healing potion: 1/8 tsp ground cayenne pepper

½ tsp pearl dust** For regular healing potion: pink pearl dust For greater healing potion: white pearl dust For superior healing potion: silver pearl dust For supreme healing potion: gold pearl dust

*The floral tea I used in this batch was a combination of hibiscus petals, lemon peel, orange peel, rose hips, and rose petals.

**Pearl dust is a powdered food coloring, made with mica powder, used to decorate pastries. It is shimmery, and not to be confused with color dust, which is powdered food coloring that is not pearlescent. It is also called luster dust in different brands.

Combine raspberries, water, floral tea, and spice over high heat in a large pan. Bring to a boil, then lower to medium heat to maintain a boil for 25 minutes.

Put a fine mesh strainer, or a colander lined with cheesecloth, over a tall bowl or pitcher. Pour the mixture into the strainer and let it slowly strain through gravity, without pressing the mixture.

Eventually, after an hour or more, you should have about 1 ½ cups of syrup.

Remove and reserve 2 cups of carbonated water from its bottle. Add the pearl dust into the bottle, then pour the raspberry syrup into the bottle. Top off any empty space with the reserved carbonated water. Screw on the lid and gently tilt the bottle back and forth to mix it.

4-6 pears ¾ cup water 2 Tbsp maple syrup ½ tsp ground cardamom

Before chopping the pears, remove wax from the skin by dipping the pears in hot water for about 30 seconds and scrubbing them with a clean, rough cloth. The color of the skin may change, but it doesn't damage the texture or flavor.

Chop the pears into small pieces, removing the core, until you have 6 cups.

Bring to a boil over high heat the pear, water, and maple syrup. Reduce heat to medium and boil, covered, until pears are completely soft.

Add the cardamom. If most of the water has boiled off, add another ½ cup. Puree the mixture in a blender until completely smooth. Transfer to another container and chill out completely.

Once it is cold, process it in an ice cream machine according to the machine's instructions.

1 ½ lbs rhubarb, chopped into ½ in pieces ¼ cup honey 1 Tbsp butter 1 Tbsp cornstarch

For the crumble topping: 1 ½ cup flour 6 Tbsp butter, cold and diced 3 Tbsp brown sugar

Preheat the oven to 375° F.

Heat the rhubarb in a pan on medium to medium low with the honey, 1 Tbsp butter, and cornstarch for about 5 minutes, until the rhubarb is glossy and everything has melted together. Transfer to an 8 ½” pie tin or square baking dish.

To make the crumble topping, place the flour and brown sugar in a bowl and rub in the butter until it is thoroughly combined, with a texture like soft crumbs.

Spread evenly over the fruit. Bake 35-45 minutes.

3 cups strawberries, leaves removed & cut in half 2 Tbsp honey 2 Tbsp sugar 1 ¾ cup (14 oz) coconut milk

Cook the honey, sugar, and strawberries over medium-high heat until thickened and mushy. Mash the strawberries, or puree them if you desire a smooth consistency. Chill until completely cold.

In a large bowl, stir together the strawberry mixture with the coconut milk. If the coconut milk has separated, beat it until it's homogenous, before adding the strawberries. Beat the ingredients together until smooth.

Churn according to the directions of your ice cream machine.
